[Denji brings up Aki's time as an actor and the blood rushing to his face at the memory colors his cheeks bright red. He has half a mind to smack him for even bringing up that stupid class play. It had been a mortifying experience for him, up in front of so many people reciting lines as best as he could remember, speaking loudly enough so everyone could hear him, and when he went backstage the girl manning the curtains, unable to suppress her giggles and snorts, told him, "You seriously sound like you have no emotion out there!"]
[He had been so embarrassed as he did his next scene that he tripped over his lines and said butthole instead of burglary and the whole audience had chuckled lightly at the flub. Except for his classmate in the wings, smothering her face in the curtains to try and quiet her laughter.]
[Needless to say, he refused to act on stage again after that.]
...Just try and find some kind of rope in the storage bin. I'll bring out the trash with her.
[He gets up to do just that, approaching Power and offering to bring down the trash with her if she promises not to throw it at the bin this time. She hums over this and seems doubtful that not hurling the bag at the bin will actually succeed in dispersing her cursed spell, but Aki takes a note from Denji and tells him he's already done that. She actually accepts that (probably because she's afraid of getting yelled at again) and follows him outside with one of the trash bags in hand.]
